Multiple sheet copying from a working sheet to an archive sheet - google-apps-script

I have had some help with the last line of this code and it works perfectly for a single sheet in the spreadsheet, however I have 5 sheets in the From spreadsheet and identical 5 sheets in the target spreadsheet how can I get the same range in the other 4 sheets to their same named counterpart in the target sheet? So I used below to try and copy each sheet to its corresponding namesake but I have set up the code as below but only importing the first sheet, also is there a way to only need to enter the originating spreadsheet id once for the whole code instead of at each sheet section?
function ImportDataRange() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('AM trip'); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1Z0zU2oGktLPB-QitYMm9XtOGN4Rd-Z-UJJomGX4NIO0'); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName('AM trip'); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange('B7:U38');
var data = range.getValues();
var lastRow = sheet.getLastRow()+1;
sheet.getRange(lastRow,3,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data)
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('PM trip'); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1Z0zU2oGktLPB-QitYMm9XtOGN4Rd-Z-UJJomGX4NIO0'); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName('PM trip'); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange('B7:U38');
var data = range.getValues();
var lastRow = sheet.getLastRow()+1;
sheet.getRange(lastRow,3,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data)
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Pool / Beach'); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1Z0zU2oGktLPB-QitYMm9XtOGN4Rd-Z-UJJomGX4NIO0'); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName('Pool / Beach'); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange('B7:U38');
var data = range.getValues();
var lastRow = sheet.getLastRow()+1;
sheet.getRange(lastRow,3,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data)
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('Night Dive'); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1Z0zU2oGktLPB-QitYMm9XtOGN4Rd-Z-UJJomGX4NIO0'); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName('Night Dive'); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange('B7:U38');
var data = range.getValues();
var lastRow = sheet.getLastRow()+1;
sheet.getRange(lastRow,3,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data)
}
Thank you for any help. Much appreciated.

The code can be simplified using a loop.
You said above that you have 5 sheets but you only have 4 in the code sample, add the other sheet name to var sheetNames.
function onOpen() { // This function adds a custom menu to the spreadsheet (Backup to archive) so you can run the script from there.
var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
ui.createMenu('Backup to archive')
.addItem('Backup', 'dataBackup')
.addToUi();
}
function dataBackup() {
var inputSS = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1wglM4-5jx873vwtFRPVgC1qk27JjrsYjDwp0fNpl5Xg'); // The file ID of the Input sheet
var archiveSS = SpreadsheetApp.openById('146WU8RghfFqlCpCSX7n6kBAKOyxcpVKt14yhVfvYz-g'); // The file ID of the archive sheet
// The names of the sheets to be copied.
// NOTE: These names must match the names of the sheets in BOTH spreadsheets i.e. the same case the spelling and the same spaces.
var sheetNames = ['AM trip', 'PM trip', 'Pool / Beach', 'Night Dive'];
for (var i = 0; i < sheetNames.length; i++) { // Loop to each sheet listed in 'var sheetNames' and copy the data.
var inputSheet = inputSS.getSheetByName(sheetNames[i]);
var archiveSheet = archiveSS.getSheetByName(sheetNames[i]);
var data = inputSheet.getRange('B7:U38').getValues();
archiveSheet.getRange(archiveSheet.getLastRow() + 1, 2, data.length, data[0].length).setValues(data);
}
}

Copy Specific Sheet from Drive Folder and Paste Data into Active Sheet

I have 10 to 15 Files in the Drive Folder All files have more than 1 Google sheets in it with some sort of Conditional Formatting.
I want to copy the Specific Sheet Named "MasterSheet" from each File and Combine the data into the Active Sheet where from script is bieng run.
Copied data should keep conditional formatting cell color. I will appreciate the help. Thanks
function myFunction()
{
var myFolder = DriveApp.getFolderById("FolderID");
var spreadSheets = myFolder.getFilesByType("application/vnd.google-apps.spreadsheet");
var ActiveSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName(Sheet1);
while(spreadSheets.hasNext())
{
var sheet = spreadSheets.next();
var spreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById(sheet.getId());
for(var y in spreadSheet.getSheets())
{
spreadSheet.getSheets()[y].copyTo(ActiveSpreadSheet);
}
}
}
UPDATE to check if there's a sheet called that way:
function copywithLog()
{
var destinsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var myFolder = DriveApp.getFolderById("16CxTO70ipcUt8U_beokid3vFOOLGTnPh");
var spreadSheets = myFolder.getFilesByType("application/vnd.google-apps.spreadsheet");
var activeSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName("Sheet1");
var i = 1
while(spreadSheets.hasNext())
{
var sheet = spreadSheets.next();
var spreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById(sheet.getId());
var sheets = spreadSheet.getSheets()
var filtered = sheets.filter(n => ["DATA"].lastIndexOf(n.getSheetName()) == 0)
if (filtered.length==1){
var newsheet = spreadSheet.getSheetByName('DATA').copyTo(destinsheet)
newsheet.getDataRange().copyTo(activeSpreadSheet.getRange(activeSpreadSheet.getLastRow()+2,1))
destinsheet.deleteSheet(newsheet)
Logger.log("Process successfully finished with the workbook named '"+spreadSheet.getName()+"'")}
else Logger.log("The worbook named '"+spreadSheet.getName()+ "' does not have a sheet called DATA")
}
}
It returns something like this:
UPDATE:
function copyinsamesheet()
{
var destinsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var myFolder = DriveApp.getFolderById("FolderID");
var spreadSheets = myFolder.getFilesByType("application/vnd.google-apps.spreadsheet");
var activeSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName("Sheet1");
var i = 1
while(spreadSheets.hasNext())
{
var sheet = spreadSheets.next();
var spreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById(sheet.getId());
var newsheet = spreadSheet.getSheetByName('MasterSheet').copyTo(destinsheet)
newsheet.getDataRange().copyTo(activeSpreadSheet.getRange(activeSpreadSheet.getLastRow()+2,1))
destinsheet.deleteSheet(newsheet)
}
}
If it has always the same name, you can try with this:
function copyMasterSheets()
{
var destinsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var myFolder = DriveApp.getFolderById("FolderID");
var spreadSheets = myFolder.getFilesByType("application/vnd.google-apps.spreadsheet");
var ActiveSpreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheetByName(Sheet1);
var i = 1
while(spreadSheets.hasNext())
{
var sheet = spreadSheets.next();
var spreadSheet = SpreadsheetApp.openById(sheet.getId());
spreadSheet.getSheetByName('MasterSheet').copyTo(destinsheet).setName('MasterSheet '+i)
i++
}
}
An addendum to the answer by #Martin.
This takes the data on the various "Master Sheets" and copies it to a single sheet.
The range of data on each sheet is established dynamically, and is stacked down the page.
function copyMasters(){
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
var target = ss.getSheetByName('Sheet1')
// idetify the starting row
var activeStartRow = 1
// get an array of all the sheets with names like "MasterSheet"
var sheetList = new Array
var sheets = ss.getSheets()
//var sourcesheet = ss.getSheets().find(sheet => sheet.getName().includes("MasterSheet"))
var mastersheets = sheets.filter(sheet => sheet.getName().includes("MasterSheet"))
//loop through the Master sheets
for (var i=0;i<mastersheets.length;i++){
var mastername = mastersheets[i].getName()
var master = ss.getSheetByName(mastername)
var masterLC = master.getLastColumn()
var masterLR = master.getLastRow()
// calculate the start row for the target sheet
if (activeStartRow==1){
var startRow =1
}else{
var startRow=startRow+masterLR
}
activeStartRow = 0
var rangeToCopy = master.getRange(1, 1, masterLR,masterLC)
//Logger.log("DEBUG: range to copy:"+rangeToCopy.getA1Notation())
var targetRange = target.getRange(startRow, 1, masterLR,masterLC)
//Logger.log("DEBUG: target range:"+targetRange.getA1Notation())
rangeToCopy.copyTo(targetRange)
// Logger.log("DEBUG: copied the data for "+mastername)
}
}

Run function on 1 sheet only instead of .forEach

I believe this will be a super easy question for you. I downloaded a YT script to automatically update YT views on Google Sheets which you can find here (https://developers.google.com/gsuite/solutions/youtube-tracker).
I have a spreadsheet with 12 tabs and the code has a function to go through every tab in the spreadsheet.
function markVideos() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheets = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheets();
// Runs through process for each tab in Spreadsheet.
sheets.forEach(function(dataSheet) {
var tabName = dataSheet.getName();
var range = dataSheet.getDataRange();
var numRows = range.getNumRows();
var rows = range.getValues();
var headerRow = rows[0];
I want to change it to apply to a specific tab only, let's say "Sheet12", instead of running it for every tab.
function markVideos() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheets = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetByName("Sheet12");
// Runs through process for each tab in Spreadsheet.
function NameOfTheFunction(dataSheet) {
var tabName = dataSheet.getName();
var range = dataSheet.getDataRange();
var numRows = range.getNumRows();
var rows = range.getValues();
var headerRow = rows[0];
I tried this but had no luck because it doesn't seem to be applying the function to the specific sheet. I believe this is super easy fix but I have no idea about programming.
Remove the forEach statement and use getSheetByName instead of getSheets:
function markVideos() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var tabName = 'Sheet12';
var dataSheet = ss.getSheetByName(tabName)
var range = dataSheet.getDataRange();
var numRows = range.getNumRows();
var rows = range.getValues();
var headerRow = rows[0];
}
Array ForEach() Method calls a function once for each element in an array. That is why a function must be defined that will take an array element function(dataSheet)
Since you only need to access 1 sheet based on its sheet name.
You don't need to define a function to access the properties of that sheet.
Sample:
Sample Code:
function myFunction() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheets = ss.getSheetByName("Sheet1");
var tabName = sheets.getName();
var range = sheets.getDataRange();
var numRows = range.getNumRows();
var rows = range.getValues();
var headerRow = rows[0];
Logger.log(tabName);
Logger.log(numRows);
Logger.log(rows);
Logger.log(headerRow);
}

Trying to copy a column range on on sheet and paste it in a row on a different sheet and have it inserted to top with each time the script runs

I am trying to copy a column range on on sheet and paste it in a row on a different sheet. I want it inserted to the top each time the script runs. This is what I got so far:
function Copy() {
var sss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1UbcIcGJRVxsX9WbzunS96Ijf8c2gRc8UYb40lHpWWQU'); //source ID
var ss = sss.getSheetByName('Container Input'); //source Sheet tab name
var range = ss.getRange('B4:B23'); //assigned range to copy
var data = range.getValues();
var tss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1UbcIcGJRVxsX9WbzunS96Ijf8c2gRc8UYb40lHpWWQU'); //destination ID
var ts = tss.getSheetByName('Container Log'); //destination sheet tab name
ts.getRange(1, 1, data.length, data[0].length).setValues(data); //you will need to define the size of the copied data see getRange()
//range.clearContent(); //clears var range
}
function Copy()
{
var sss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1UbcIcGJRVxsX9WbzunS96Ijf8c2gRc8UYb40lHpWWQU');
//source ID
var ss = sss.getSheetByName('Container Input'); //source Sheet tab name
var ts = sss.getSheetByName('Cylinder Tracking'); //destination sheet tab name
//var protection = ts.protect();
//protection.setUnprotectedRanges(2,1,1,21);
ts.insertRowsBefore(2, 1);// Adds a new row before row 2 - Keeps the formatting of the
old row 2 for the new row 2
var source_C = 2;
var source_R = 3;
var dest_C = 2;
var dest_R = 2;
SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getRange('Cylinder Tracking!A2').setValue(new Date())
for (var counter = 1; counter <= 20; counter++)
{
var source_range = ss.getRange(source_R,source_C); //assigned range to copy
var data = source_range.getValues();
var dest_range = ss.getRange(dest_C,dest_R);
ts.getRange(dest_R, dest_C).setValues(data); //you will need to define the size of the
copied data see getRange()
source_R++;
dest_C++;
}
}

Script issue with an array reference

Please excuse the length of the post I was getting help but the person has not been online for the last week so thought I would try here to get the last few kinks out. Thank you for any extra help.
Here is my original script.
function ImportDataRange() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("AM trip"); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById("1n4**4HzvVS****RQhPHndUbn0N0nkpOE5NpO2U"); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName("AM trip"); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange("B9:U38");
var data = range.getValues();
sheet.getRange("C1").setValues(data)
}
My adjusted script:-
function ImportDataRange() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('AM trip'); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById('18h-UAy10EvANHZXLebspZsUbE2fisyEBAFnUYV9JBHs'); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName('AM trip'); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange('B7:U38');
var data = range.getValues();
var lastRow = sheet.getRange(sheet.getLastRow()+1,3).setValue(data);
}}
This takes B7 from the original spreadsheet and places it in the next blank row down and in Column C but not B7:U38, if i change setValue(data) to setValues(Data) I get the range height error.
Then below, I got from you and below the script is the error it produces:-
function ImportDataRange() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('AM trip'); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById('18hAy10EvANHZXLebspZsUbE2fisyEBAFnUYV9JBHs'); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName('AM trip'); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange('B7:U38');
var data = range.getValues();
var lastRow = sheet.getLastRow()+1;
setValues(sheet, lastRow, 3, data);
The reason for the error is range height should match the height of the data being input.
You will have to modify the code like so
function ImportDataRange() {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName('AM trip'); //To Sheet Name
var ssraw = SpreadsheetApp.openById('18hAy10EvANHZXLebspZsUbE2fisyEBAFnUYV9JBHs'); // From Spreadsheet ID
var sheetraw = ssraw.getSheetByName('AM trip'); // From Sheet name
var range = sheetraw.getRange('B7:U38');
var data = range.getValues();
var lastRow = sheet.getLastRow()+1;
sheet.getRange(lastRow,3,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data)
}
Basically, get the length of the data array use array.length gives you number of rows. You find more details on it here
Details on setValues can be found here, similarly details on getRange can be found here
Hope that helps

Script to copy workbook to workbook data only

Script would run in the source workbook.
function CopyDataToNewFile() {
var sss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1yeS6_qhURUYHVkImLNMjdGUeMWhPDwQKdLNgpygiwG4'); // sss = source spreadsheet
var ss = sss.getSheetByName('Sheet1'); // ss = source sheet
//Get full range of data
var SRange = ss.getDataRange();
//get A1 notation identifying the range
var A1Range = SRange.getA1Notation();
//get the data values in range
var SData = SRange.getValues();
var tss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1KQBsMJ0vgBQwkM89d166RPyVahIZY3DRSOWVCB4zapE'); // tss = target spreadsheet
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var first = ss.getSheetByName('Sheet1');
sheet.clear({ formatOnly: false, contentsOnly: true });
var tss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('1KQBsMJ0vgBQwkM89d166RPyVahIZY3DRSOWVCB4zapE');
var ts = tss.getSheetByName('Sheet1'); // ts = target sheet
//set the target range to the values of the source data
ts.getRange(A1Range).setValues(SData);
}
Would set to trigger on form submit. Would copy the data from a sheet in one workbook to a sheet in another workbook. Format of both sheets will be same AND must remain unaltered. Row & column count/size will be same on each sheet.
Here a code that will go through all the sheet of your source workbook and copy data in the current workbook. Sheet name will be the same of source spreadsheet and only data are copied.
EDIT : Code changed to not copy but import data from spreadsheet to a dest spreadsheet where we assume that the sheet is already created. If sheet does not exist we create it.
function importWorkBook(){
var idSource = "IdOfTheSheetSource";
var sheets = SpreadsheetApp.openById(idSource).getSheets();
var current = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
for(var i in sheets){
var sheet = sheets[i];
var data = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
var destSheet = current.getSheetByName(sheet.getName());
if(destSheet){
destSheet.getRange(1,1,destSheet.getMaxRows(),destSheet.getMaxColumns()).clearContent();
destSheet.getRange(1,1,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data);
Logger.log(sheet.getName() + " imported");
}else{
var newSheet = current.insertSheet(sheet.getName());
newSheet.getRange(1,1,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data);
Logger.log(sheet.getName() + " created");
}
}
}
